Yeah Alan, Gene's camera is pointed at the Quincy T shirt. Maybe Gene will post that pic. I didn't even notice Dan walking into the picture, and so I can see from the angle it's hard to tell where the camera is pointed.

I spent most of the day Friday working with John Schubert, Shirley Summers, Cookie Houghkirk and others to help set up the silent auction. George Taylor was a big help moving tables around, and setting up the chairs.
Saturday morning I got to the pits early to start taking some pics. I had a good talk with Bob Wartinger whom I haven't seen in a while. These are some pics from that day.
I don't know some of these people, but I started out with Bob Wartinger and Pete Nydahl. The third and fourth frames are Rich and Mike Krier. Seven and eight photos are Todd coming into the pits in a john boat that was sinking and the scourge of the lake, an asian carp Todd speared and threw out on the gravel at the shore.
I'm not sure who was talking with Todd (I think I know but not sure), and the last pic is a smiling Buddy Tennell.
ADD: Ray Rodda provided me with the roster...so instead of getting in a hurry, I need to refer to that to get the driver's name's right. But in some cases there will be no way to i.d. a boat connection. Thanks much Ray.
I can help out a little Wayne. The yellow V-23 is Paulie Bosnich , who won 125CC runabout , in the boat and Matt Harmon who runs OSY and also runs stock classes. The next picture has Mark Stahl in , W-8 , in the foreground with the red life jacket.
Todd talking to Willie Creer, red shirt, works with David Tenney at all races
Jamie Nilsen from Washington, son of Jim who drives in the CS/CR classes with Steve Greaves.

One more time. I lost this the first time I sent due to losing connection. So if someone else want's to call out names....go for it. I will,however, start it off with retired boat racer and BRF member Allen J. Lang.
Love em' all! but especially Dan with the stopwatch!

Don't be sorry Ray. It had everything I needed. I just had it stashed in the box with the extra silent auction pages Gene East made up and couldn't find it. I have it now, but I was timing out trying to upload the pictures and didn't want to have to redo all that. It takes a little while to edit and size the pictures and I just wanted to speed up the process I am now only going to upload five at a time and that should go through O.K.
Thanks much for your help Ray and it was great to spend some time talking with you.
